Beyond wind farms
Following the ongoing debate on energy, some hypersummarised notes are:
1.Energia is not only a commodity, but also an economic precondition.
2. Oil is and will be irreplaceable, let us not fool ourselves.
3. Our energy model depends on fossil fuels and we outsource their damage.
4th. Euskadi is above the EU average CO2 emissions.
5. In Europe, only Luxembourg produces less energy than the CAPV.
6. The global unstable political climate is another reason for the relocation of the economy (including energy).
7. When it comes to energy, I lack reviews against the intention to extend Petronor (12% of CO2 emissions from the Basque Country) or the Superport (1.5% of GDP), infrastructures that feed the Monster day and night.
8. What futures are possible taking into account the available material bases? There will be no linear and continuous energy transition without any contradiction. Unfortunately, we are late.
9. Of course, to reduce energy consumption we need a roadmap with concrete data. We would have to discuss how to implement that plan, including power. The issue is quite complicated.
10. In Astigarraga they will have Christmas lighting by decision of the popular consultation.
11. "Defense of the Earth" and "Just Slowdown" are slogans of attraction, not political programs.
12. "There are no wind towers, there are photovoltaic plates," and if in our mountains there are minerals that are part of the solar panels... What would we say?
13. One Errekaleor plate or another Iberdrola plate causes the same reduction.
14. Today's mountaineering is a good metaphor, we don't want wind in the mountains at all, but we make hundreds or thousands of miles to get to the mountain.
15. In environmentalism, a conservationist vision has historically been imposed on the social side, but if with wind farms we could decarbonize the economy and lower the bill?
16. With all love, have you ever thought of where the energy that Goiener markets comes from?
17. The spectacularity of wind towers makes us uncomfortable in our ecological political identities. This brings the rest of the debate to life.
18. Pro-versus schemes oversimplify the debate.
19. Statkraft is not an NGO, but it is not Repsol either. What if instead of waiting for your proposal, the organized people did? There are risks, there are opportunities.
20. It is healthy that environmentalism is not a monolithic block. Properly managing our discrepancies will be one of the keys to success in building a broad movement.

Euskaraldia comes back. Apparently, it will be in the spring of next year. They have already presented it and the truth is that it has surprised me; not Euskaraldia himself, but his motto: We'll do it by moving around.

I do not know if you also have the same perception – I recognise this: here I have started to write in a scientific way. I am referring to the natural extension of the word laziness. I hear more and more in the corners of Hego Euskal Herria: Basque, Spanish and, of course,... [+]
Many at Christmas feel more lazy than illusion when we think about meals and family gatherings. But we anticipate that it is not food that makes us feel collectively uncomfortable, but the normativity that defines the traditional family. Moreover, we would dare to say that the... [+]
I have always found the way in Spanish to the carriages that can be found here and there: humiliating. Isn't it a pretty light, white name or doesn't it have any connotation? After all, everything that was going on there had to be humiliated. It is known that for the god of... [+]
The end of the Syrian Arab Republic has caused great surprise at the way in which it has taken place: fast and almost without resistance. However, it is not so strange when we consider that the country was destroyed, impoverished and trodden. Most Syrians have long been... [+]
Novelty is usually one of the most heard words associated with the Durango Fair. The novelty is there, and here's the novelty. However, in some cases it is sufficient to give a different aspect to the previous one to paste that label. The CDs and remastered reeditions with... [+]
The Basque country has a very large water flow in the shortage. Every local drop curls and revives our culture. Offer a sea of water to that thirst. Although the Basque Country has come from a deep and dark well, we have all drawn our sample of salt water and turned it into a... [+]
Young people start consuming pornography before, as porn is their only sex education. How on earth have we come here?
Today, it has to be acknowledged that thanks to the Internet it is much easier to see pornography. Unfortunately, through a click, the 7-9 year-old boy comes to... [+]
